This Christmas, immerse yourself in a heartwarming journey of love, family, and self-discovery with My Future You, Regal Entertainment’s poignant romantic-family drama, premiering as one of the official entries for the golden anniversary of the Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) on December 25, 2024.

A Tale of Timelines and Connection

Starring the beloved love team of Francine Diaz and Seth Fedelin—affectionately known as FranSeth—the film weaves an enchanting narrative that transcends time. My Future You follows the intertwining lives of Lex (Seth) and Karen (Francine), who connect through a mysterious dating app that bridges the years between 2009 and 2024. Their journey is one of exploration as they attempt to rewrite the past to create a brighter future, learning that every choice comes with its own set of unforeseen consequences.

The film’s stellar supporting cast, including Almira Muhlach, Christian Vasquez, Peewee O’Hara, Bodjie Pascua, Mosang, Marcus Madrigal, Vance Larena, Izzy Canillo, Angelica Lao, with special appearances by Alex Calleja and Donna Cariaga, adds depth and warmth to this already compelling tale.

A Family-Friendly Favorite

One of the distinguishing features of My Future You is its Rated G classification from the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB), making it a perfect family-friendly choice for the holiday season. It’s an invitation for viewers of all ages to unite in laughter, love, and lessons learned.

A Unique Concept with a Compelling Vision

The creative mind behind this film, writer-director Crisanto B. Aquino, who previously won Best Screenplay at the MMFF in 2019, shared the serendipitous inspiration behind My Future You. A conversation with a friend during a time of isolation sparked the idea of two lonely souls connecting through a chat across timelines, leading to the convergence of the past and future.

“As we worked on this film, the message of resilience and the importance of love became evident. It evolved, and with FranSeth on board, every piece fell into place,” said Aquino. He emphasized the significance of timing and faith in bringing forth this touching story.

With intricate attention to detail, Aquino and his team ensured that the two timelines—2009 and 2024—are visually distinct, yet interconnected. This adds a unique layer to the narrative, enhancing the emotional impact as Lex and Karen navigate their choices.

The Dawn of a New Era for FranSeth

For both Francine and Seth, My Future You marks their highly anticipated big-screen debut following their success in the hit teleserye Kadenang Ginto. Their chemistry, admired by fans and critics alike, promises to deliver the charm and “kilig” moments that viewers crave while capturing the film’s deeper emotional essence.

Reflecting on their collaboration, Director Crisanto expressed, “From our first table read, I knew they were perfect for these roles. Their genuine dedication and chemistry made all the difference in bringing this story to life.”

Regal Entertainment’s Ongoing Legacy

As one of the cornerstones of Philippine cinema, Regal Entertainment continues to resonate with audiences, crafting films that reflect the highs and lows of Filipino life. Executive producer Roselle Y. Monteverde shared, “My Future You exemplifies our commitment to telling stories that touch the heart and inspire hope. This holiday season, we invite every Filipino family to enjoy a film that celebrates love, family, and the endless possibilities of tomorrow.”

The film’s official theme song, Museo by Eliza Maturan, beautifully encapsulates the film’s romantic and magical essence, anchoring the emotional journey that unfolds on screen.
